'THEsLONDOE. RIOTS.

From present ind ationsSit would ap.
pear that the Tory Government will
have enough to do looking after the
rioteri in London without devoting
their spare time to the enforcement Of
the Coercion Act in Ireland. The
events Of the5 past week reveal the
existence OF a terrible state OF affairs i'll
the largest city in thesworla. The peo-
pie are starving. When they ask the
Governme',t tfor bread they receive a.
stone. it's not surprising that people
situated thus should rebel. We fear
that the people who are creating the
trouble have been placed III q false .po-
sition by the press Of the Old Country
and even Of America. All that they
ask for is work. They know that the
Tory Government delights in seeing
them reduced to want and misery, and
how to extricate themselves from their
dilemma is difficult problem to solve.
Hunger stares them in the face, the
Government laughs at their misery and
will make no effort to save them from A
Geaah OF s starvation. Is it any wonder,
therefore, that the people rebel against
such neartlessness Mr.. Gladstone is
DONG everything in his power to con-
ciliate the masses, but his return to
power Is too far off to render any i'm
mediate assistance. Undoubtedly the
Government will order ont the military
to shoot the people down like dogs.
Such is life under the British flag.

TEE LATEST HOME RULE CON EIR2trc,

he has succeeded in the object of his
mission, or if successful at all, we are
unable to say. We hope, however, that
he has done better than the other
agent once sent to ireland by the Do

Brother Merrick's views on the ques~
tion Of Home Rule that we would

will be received by the brethren here.
but 1t is stated as an undoubted fact
that Henry has gone over to the Par
nellites. Conversing with a Canadian
whom he met in the neighbor}lood Of
Sandy Row Brother Merrick said that
there were two sides to the matter,
and he now believed in Home Rule for
Ireland. This is indeed to us intalli~
gence of great joy; and we. earnestly
hope that Brother Merrick, now that
he is on the right track, will pe1severe
in his good Intentions Would that a
few more Of the grands and ex grailds
went to ireland and. like him, became
converted to the National faith.

The Boston Pilot observes as one OF
the interesting signs of the times, the
rapidly growing appreciation of athle-
tic training for boys and girls and
young men. We are glad to see that
Catholics are leading in this health
race, at least in providing popular
schools for athletic training The
great colleges, Harvard and Yale, have
as yet the first place in attention to
physical culture: but the movement is
advancing in nearly all the Catholic
colleges of the country. In Massachu-
setts, particularly, the number of par
ism gymnasiums now open, or in course
OF erection, is very notable. Father
Scully, of Cambridgeport, who was the
pioneer with one of the greatest GYM
nasiums in the country, intends soon
to turn the scholars from his paroc,lial
schools. male and female mum mberlng
over 300. into the gymnasium for d
regular course Of training. This will
ensure population in Cambridgeport
that will understand and value the ad
vantages of physical culture. The
latest Catholic gymnasium opened in
Massachusetts is Father Keiley's at
Stoughton; and in many respects this
deserves to be model. The hall is Of
moderate but sufficient size. It is lofty,
well-aired and lighted, and of unob-
structed span. The side rooms for
dressing. reading, bathing {this not yet
finished), are convenient and large
enough. The large hall is entirely
shea thed with pine, ensuring Cry and
sweet atmosphere when properly venti-
lated. Father Kelley intends to provide.
skilled instructors for the gymnasium;
and we congratulate the Catholics Of
on the admirable provision
he has made for the young men Of his
parish. The youth who carefully goes
through a three months course Of in
telligent athletic training will reap .theI
benefit of it throug hont his whole life

The causes that have led &c this chang
Of heart are many I'he fiist, and per

under all circumstances, has taugh
them that She principles OF the lr1s'

deeply embedded in the hearts Of ths
people for whose benefit they We're frs
promulgated and have since been pro

5ary, and that they would rather yield ur
life itself rather than surrender them
to che Tories. The Government, ii
they nave any eyesight left, should see
thai the emily way to render the League
powerless is to kill off the people who
use it as the most effective weapon the
wropes an avaricious and debased ar
istocracy would infict upon them.
But there are other reasons which
should not be lost sight Of. Public
opinion has unquestionably arrayed
itself with the cause OF the irish people;
and opinion in Great Britain possesses
Just as much force us in any other coun-
try il, the world. 1t may NOT operate
or make itself felt SO quickly, but it is
equally as sure in the end. The Tory
Government knows that by trampling
the rights of the people under it's foot
it has jeopardized it's chances fcr a
heightened existence, and what more
natural than even at this late day Sal
isbur3, Smith & Co. should make an ef-
fort to court the popular feeling of the
people. They know that every evic-
tion and every attempt to suppress the
League drives another nail into their
political cofins. We doubt not that if
the CLIQUE that control British affairs
were convinced that Home Rule for
ireland would insure them another
election they would Immediately ac-
cede to the demand.
What it, after all, this latest political
should prove to be nothing
more than a deep.laid plot to throw the
people Off their guard, and the Govern
ment should shortly resume its iniQui-
tous operations ? Everybody who has
paid any attention to the way the To
